Fourth Quarter Income Statement Review

  • Revenuesfor NIKE, Inc. were $11.0 billion, down 1 percent on a reported basis and down 4 percent on a currency-neutral basis.
    • Revenues for the NIKE Brand were $10.7 billion, flat on a reported basis and down 3 percent on a currency-neutral basis, primarily due to declines in Greater China and EMEA, partially offset by growth in North America.
    • Wholesale revenues were $6.6 billion, up 4 percent on a reported basis and up 1 percent on a currency-neutral basis, primarily due to growth in North America, partially offset by declines in Greater China.
    • NIKE Direct revenues were $4.1 billion, down 7 percent on a reported basis and down 9 percent on a currency-neutral basis, due to a 12 percent decrease in NIKE Brand Digital and a 7 percent decrease in NIKE-owned stores.
    • Revenues for Converse were $244 million, down 32 percent on a reported basis and down 34 percent on a currency-neutral basis, due to declines across all territories.
  • Gross margin increased 890 basis points to 49.2 percent, primarily due to the expected recovery of the IEEPA tariffs. The expected recovery of the IEEPA tariffs of $986 million increased gross margin by approximately 900 basis points.
  • Selling and administrative expense decreased 2 percent to $4.1 billion.
    • Demand creation expense was $1.2 billion, down 4 percent, primarily due to lower brand marketing expense, partially offset by unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
    • Operating overhead expense was $2.9 billion, down 1 percent, due to lower other administrative costs, partially offset by unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates and higher wage-related expense.
  • The effective tax rate was 19.6 percent, compared to 33.6 percent for the same period last year, primarily due to stock-based compensation and prior year one-time items that had an outsized impact on the tax rate because of lower pre-tax income in the prior year.
  • Net income was $1.1 billion, up 407 percent, and Diluted earnings per share was $0.72, including a $0.52 benefit related to the expected recovery of the IEEPA tariffs.

    • NIKE Direct revenues were $17.7 billion, down 6 percent on a reported basis and down 8 percent on a currency-neutral basis, due to a 12 percent decrease in NIKE Brand Digital and a 4 percent decrease in NIKE-owned stores.
    • Revenues for Converse were $1.2 billion, down 31 percent on a reported basis and down 32 percent on a currency-neutral basis, due to declines across all territories.
  • Gross margin increased 20 basis points to 42.9 percent.
  • Selling and administrative expense was flat compared to the prior year at $16.1 billion.
    • Demand creation expense was $4.8 billion, up 1 percent, due to higher sports marketing expense and unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by lower brand marketing expense, reflecting higher investment in key sports events in the prior year.
    • Operating overhead expense was $11.4 billion, flat compared to the prior year as lower other administrative costs were offset by higher wage-related expense, driven by employee severance costs, and unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
  • The effective tax rate was 20.3 percent, compared to 17.1 percent for the same period last year, primarily due to a prior year one-time, non-cash deferred tax benefit provided by U.S. tax regulations related to foreign currency gains and losses.
  • Net income was $3.1 billion, down 3 percent, and Diluted earnings per share was $2.10, a decrease of 3 percent.

  • Cash and equivalents and short-term investments were $9.0 billion, down approximately $0.1 billion from last year, as cash generated from operations, which includes approximately $0.3 billion of cash received from IEEPA tariff recoveries, was more than offset by cash dividends and capital expenditures.

1 The percent change has been calculated using actual exchange rates in use during the comparative prior year period and is provided to enhance the visibility of the underlying business trends by excluding the impact of translation arising from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, which is considered a non-GAAP financial measure. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure when evaluating the Company's performance, including when making financial and operating decisions. Additionally, management believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with additional financial information that should be considered when assessing the Company's underlying business performance and trends. References to this measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

2 Global Brand Divisions revenues include NIKE Brand licensing and other miscellaneous revenues that are not part of a geographic operating segment.

3 Included in NIKE Brand revenues are sales of Jordan Brand products which were $7,034 million in fiscal 2026 compared to $7,270 million in fiscal 2025, down 3% on a reported basis and down 5% on a currency-neutral basis.

4 Corporate revenues primarily consist of foreign currency hedge gains and losses related to revenues generated by entities within the NIKE Brand geographic operating segments and Converse, but managed through the Company's central foreign exchange risk management program.

1 Total NIKE Brand EBIT, Total NIKE, Inc. EBIT and EBIT margin are considered non-GAAP financial measures. EBIT is calculated as Net income before Interest (income) expense, net and Income tax expense. EBIT margin is calculated as total NIKE, Inc. EBIT divided by total NIKE, Inc. Revenues. References to EBIT and EBIT margin should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures when evaluating the Company's performance, including segment performance, when making financial and operating decisions. Additionally, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with additional financial information that should be considered when assessing the Company's underlying business performance and trends.

2 On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that U.S. tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) on goods imported into the U.S. were unauthorized. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company deemed the recovery of IEEPA tariffs paid to be probable. For the three and twelve months ended May 31, 2026, North America and Converse include a $965 million and $21 million benefit, respectively, for the expected recovery of the IEEPA tariffs paid on goods imported into the U.S. For the twelve months ended May 31, 2026, the benefit largely offsets the impact of the IEEPA tariffs recognized during fiscal 2026.

3 Global Brand Divisions primarily represents costs, including product creation and design expenses, that are centrally managed for the NIKE Brand, as well as costs associated with NIKE Direct global digital operations and enterprise technology. Global Brand Divisions revenues include NIKE Brand licensing and other miscellaneous revenues that are not part of a geographic operating segment.

4 Corporate consists primarily of unallocated general and administrative expenses, including expenses associated with centrally managed departments; depreciation and amortization related to the Company's corporate headquarters; unallocated insurance, benefit and compensation programs, including stock-based compensation; and certain foreign currency gains and losses, including certain hedge gains and losses.
